Booking with Opodo or Travelup? Advice asap

Ready to book my July/August flights - more than I wanted to pay but you know when you get fed up of waiting, and you want to get other things booked? They're also perfect times and with Aer Lingus.

However my choice is either Opodo or Travelup - anyone got any experience of booking with these? I'm just nervous in this financial climate. I will of course book on my credit card, so does it matter?

Thanks

Both are fine. I’ve used both with no problems. I’ve seen some people have issues when things go wrong such as getting flights changed when connection times become too short after a schedule change but generally they both are ok to use.

I've never booked with them but they are sites that have negative reviews when people have needed to make any changes. Is it much more to book direct with Air Lingus ?

We have used both but mainly Travelup for our last two trips to Orlando. Absolutely no issues at all and the price in the Summer was £668 for 3 adults, direct and return from Belfast. Hard to beat

We booked with Opodo in August for next May. I was a bit worried at first but one hour later I could log into Virgin and choose my seats etc. They were so much cheaper than anyone else.

Opodo wouldn't process the flights and despite filling in all the details I kept getting a message saying'session interrupted' which was really annoying.

I booked with Netflights in the end.
